Since its arrival on the market the Siri Remote only supports a handful of countries and languages, which prevents other users from enjoying this device as Apple announced that we should. Siri is currently only available in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Spain, the United Kingdom, and of course the United States. But it only supports five languages, among which is Chinese, one of Apple's main markets: English, French, German, Spanish and Japanese. If we compare the countries where Siri is available, in 29 countries, these figures do not make any sense. But below we explain the main reason.

Apparently the problem of the discrepancy between the countries where Siri is compatible and the countries where the Siri Remote of the Apple TV is compatible with Siri, as we can read on the German website MacPrime is that the Siri project on Apple TV works separately from the one integrated in iOS, and it has practically nothing to do with it.

According to several Apple employees, Apple's set-top-box is designed specifically for content consumption, including pronunciation in different languages ​​of the actors, directors, producers among others. Apple is working on adding more languages ​​so that Siri correctly pronounces the phonetic differences when speaking Spanish, for example, when pronouncing titles or names in English. At the moment there is no release date for the new languages, but at least the main markets are already covered.

Surely if you use Siri to read a phrase in English to you within a text, You will realize that the English text will read it as is it is written without giving the pronunciation in English. This is done by the version of Siri for Apple TV and it is the main problem that Apple is facing when it comes to supporting more countries and languages ​​for Apple TV.
